Tonka Birdstrike!!
Hi,
Right place,right time,I guess.......... well for me anyway,not for the unfortunate seagull! Tornado over the piano keys at Lossie today hit this gull,around about the area of the left hand undercarriage.Result not pretty....... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/amwaluk/BS1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/amwaluk/BS2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v332/amwaluk/BS3.jpg Hope you are not having chicken for dinner:\ And yes,I have sent the pics to the Sqn. |
Pretty bird!
Now that's something you don't see every day!
Nice piccie! BV:ok: |

Looking at the second picture, I don't think he could reach it! :) Congrats on owning the next Bird Scaring poster. :ok: |
It appears, from the second picture, that he too was configured for landing!
|
I take it he left it on the deck then? Or was it 'just one more roller' for CFT? :rolleyes:
|
The first air to air kill albeit from a GR4!
|
This is what happens when you have too many in the circuit, personally I blame the ATC'ers for not ordering a go around
|
Nice work!
Splat a few more of the noisey twats |
I wonder if such an impressive crumple zone was part of the original seagull design feature? :eek:
|
It's probably the first time a GR4 mate has ever got a bird to part her legs by dangling his undercarriage!
|
Brilliant pictures. A feather in your cap; in fact, several I should think.
|
Great pictures. I hope they bagged the bits and sent them off to DEFRA:}
|
You killed my Speckled Jim!
|
Murderers....
|
Where'd it go?
|
What pictures:confused:
|
Sorry guys,the pics were of great interest and copyright was becoming an issue.They are now under license at gettyimages.com.
|
why not repost them with a big watermark across them?
they were stunning images i have to say, and i hope you get the recognition/financial reward they deserve. TFC |
No pics.
Might as well pull this thread as it is of no use to anyone. |
Sorted and pics back.
If anyone wants copies for educational purposes,flight safety issues etc,can you please continue to PM me. Regards |
Was catering alerted?
I'll just be going now................. |
He'd have wanted it that way :\
|
If only the Tonka pilot had selected reheat and gone round ! The Seagul could have been legless and barbecued at the same time!
|
To paraphrase a well-known trade training movie:
Quote: "Where'd it go?" "Where'd what go?" (I'll get my coat!) Mac |
Almost a nasty quack-up there....
Tonka-1....Jonathan Livingston Seagull-0 It's unclear who-hit-who up the rear.... |
Big bird v Little Bird
Told everyone about the great pics, :ugh: can you send them direct?
|
Pics are now under license at scoopt.com.In the odd and unusual section.
|

Nice Pictures! errmm but, just thought; you shouldn't have been bird scaring instead of taking photos I Hope! It's just your handle being ranger703 - no I must be wrong :hmm: |
I was most definately outside the fence when the shots were taken. I'm Air Traffic for my sins,not BCU, but have chosen the quiet life,the handle does have some reference!
|
Fantastic pics.
|
Fantastic split-second capture!:ok:
Out of curiosity, have you made much money from the photos? Hopefully, you have. SMT |
I'll never eat Chinese, er sorry, Seagull again..............
|
I'll never eat Chinese, er sorry, Seagull again.............. Apparently you get quite a lot of meat in your portions.;) |
